this video is a response to Rob Bell's controversial video that started the entire fiasco. In no way are we parodying or making fun of Rob. Our hope is that we are graciously using his logic and appeal to emotion and turning it on it's head. The beauty of the gospel is that ALL the attributes of God win at the cross, not just love. Gods justice is satisfied, His holiness revealed, His love shown, etc. The cross is a cataclysmic crash between all of God's attributes showing that he is both JUST and JUSTIFIER of the one who does not work but trusts in Him.

UPDATE: just looking at the comment section I would like to articulate what I am trying to portray in this video. My main goal in this video was to show that God's justice and Love can be both held in congruence with each other, and Love in the end does indeed win. God's justice has been satisfied for those who turn to Jesus. I am in no way saying Hitler is beyond redemption, I am merely reversing the logic the original video posed about gandhi. I hope this helps, and I hope people see the love, grace, and mercy in Jesus. The teaching of this video and the analogies have their limits due to the fact I am trying to parrallel the original video. I hope in light of that the comments and critiques can be done in grace knowing that I whole heartedly believe Jesus came to bring "grace upon grace" (John Ch. 1) and that he put all the spiritual evil powers to shame at the cross. As Paul said so graciously, "God made us alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him."-Colossians 2.

Hi Jeff,

I think you should upload your videos with subtitles so that everyone can see them as they are very good.

Blessings for your life

The bible sais god sees all sin as the same. It's not about that, it's about the forgiveness, wether you ask for it or not

[scott kelly]

Also, your statement that hitler claimed to believe in Jesus is false. Hilter NEVER claimed to be a follower of Jesus. You should really do some research.

[scott kelly]

No one comes to the Father but by me,” no one, no one. Buddhism, no. Hinduism, no. New Age-ism, no. Mormonism, no. Jehovah’s Witness-ism, no. Nice people, no. Good people, no. Generous people, no. Religious people, no. No one! That includes you. No one, no exception, no one. No one. No one comes to the Father but through Jesus Christ, the Son of God. That’s exactly what Jesus said." Excerpt from Heaven and Hell, sermon by Mark Driscoll.

[scott kelly]

excerpt from the sermon."Here’s what Jesus says. John 14:6, he couldn’t be clearer. Had he not said things like this, no one would have killed him. “I am the way, the truth, the life,” singular and exclusive. “No one comes to the Father but by me.

1 Thessalonians 1:9-10

King James Version (KJV)

9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;

10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

[scott kelly]

Romans 5:9

Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.

[scott kelly]

2. He loves us with regenerating love before we meet any condition. The new birth is not God’s response to our meeting the condition of faith. On the contrary, the new birth enables us to believe.

“Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been [already!] born of God,” (1 John 5:1). “[We] were born, not . . . of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:13).

[scott kelly]

How then does God love unconditionally? Two ways (at least):

He loves us with electing love unconditionally. “He chose us in him before the foundation of the world . . . for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 1:4-5).

He does not base this election on foreseeing our faith. On the contrary, our faith is the result of being chosen and appointed to believe, as Acts 13:48 says, “As many as were appointed to eternal life believed.”

[scott kelly]

It’s not the love of the most intimate fellowship with the Father because Jesus said, “He who loves me will be loved by my Father” (John 14:21). And James said, “Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you” (James 4:8).

It’s not the love that will admit us into heaven when we die because John says, “Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life” (Revelation 2:10). And faithfulness is a condition.

[scott kelly]

t’s not the love of working all things together for our good because Paul says that happens “to those who love God” (Romans 8:28).
